Comment:

i put half of this mix together in my head whilst spending last monday lunchtime sitting on a bench by the Thames in Hammersmith. The sky was grey, the rain drizzled... so it's a downbeat, melancholic mix. committing the music to CD last night, i was more optimistic, so the end of the mix takes us down river towards the sea, and it gets a bit more hopeful...

i agree, Sea Song is one of my favourites. Nice Nick Cave choice, too.

Tim Buckley, Nick Drake, Brian Eno, Radiohead, PJ and Bjork..I love it. Sea Song is the best possible choice to close out this mix, which is brilliant. The song is a favorite of mine, too. Nice work.

really smooth mix (though i think the suede song is "by the sea"?). would you be willing to trade?

excellent :)
i would have added some of windy & carl's stuff off their "depths" album, but nevertheless, this is brilliant

Good. It might also be a suicide mix, depending on how the Doves track sounds.
